Harley Davidson made a textile insulated rain glove with the wiper and they were awesome but didn't sell well with the HD crowd. They didn't have a metal concho or shield, either (probably why they didn't sell). I think they are "FXRS" model. You might find them in stock at a shop but you can't order them.

I've got a pair of the BMW Summer Rain gloves that I'm happy with. They also have the built in squeegee thing that is really very useful for wiping away rain drops and bug guts. I think I paid about $70. This is my second season so far with them.

BMW Summer Rain Gloves

I was searching for some info on BMW's summer rain gloves and came across this thread.. My wife gave me these gloves recently as a present. They are nice enough however I have found they are the furthest thing away from being waterproof.. Rode in a torrential downpour the other day and my hands were soaked.. And the gloves took 3 days to dry out. Am I missing something? Is there a liner that goes in them? Or do they just suck?

I have had them for a few years and they did "suck" maybe?
My hands get wet but later with my hands and gloves in the sink full of water they were fine.
I bought some silk liners and I think that fixed it, I have only been through small showers and not a full rain after I got the liners.

My vote is for the AeroStick Triple Digit Covers

On our trip to Ohio last month we ran into a number of torrential downpours. The AeroStick Triple Digit Covers kept my hands dry as a bone. The thing I liked best was being able to use my standard gloves under the covers and I felt no need to stop and take them off between the downpours. Two friends who did the trip with me were so impressed that they ordered the covers.

Raim Gloves

Cannot help you with the squeege part of your needs but have been riding for 3 years with simple nylon overmits that are totallly waterproof and cheap. Have tried various "gloves" and found the only alternative that worked well were LARGE plumber rubber type gloves.. The other products including BMW's either did not last or simply did not work. Good hunting.
